"Sources confirmed to us that Hurricane Sandy that is slamming the U.S. was set off by highly advanced technologies developed by the heroic Iranian regime that supports the resistance, with coordination of our resistive Syrian regime," pro-government group News Network of the Syrian Armed Forces said in a Facebook posting.

"This is the punishment for whoever dares to attack Syria's (Bashar) al-Assad and threaten peace and stability."

research HAARP, the u.s govt has already admitted that they can change the weather, a dept of defence guy said in the 90's, the chinese changed the weather for the 2008 olympics etc, it is common knowledge.

If it was an artifical hurricane it will have been done by obama to make him look like the hero though.
